Given numbers are 534,978,312,506,956
The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.
The LCM of 534,978,312,506,956 is 273684767928.
Find LCM of 534,978,312,506,956 with Prime Factorization
| 2 | 534, 978, 312, 506, 956 |
| 2 | 267, 489, 156, 253, 478 |
| 3 | 267, 489, 78, 253, 239 |
| 89, 163, 26, 253, 239 |
Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.
2 x 2 x 3 x 89 x 163 x 26 x 253 x 239 = 273684767928
Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 534,978,312,506,956 is 273684767928.
LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}
Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.
534 x 978 x 312 x 506 x 956 = 78821213163264
Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.
534 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 89, 178, 267, 534
978 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 163, 326, 489, 978
312 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 13, 24, 26, 39, 52, 78, 104, 156, 312
506 : 1, 2, 11, 22, 23, 46, 253, 506
956 : 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, 956
2 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 534,978,312,506,956, is 2.
Now, the common factors can be found like this.
534:2x 3x 89
978:2x 3x 163
312:2x 2x 2x 3x 13
506:2x 11x 23
956:2x 2x 239
From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.
2x 2x 2x 2x 3x 3 = 144
Therefore, the value for common factors is 144.
Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.
LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}
LCM = 78821213163264/(2x144)
LCM = 78821213163264/288
LCM = 273684767928
Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 534,978,312,506,956 is 273684767928.
